Maaladu | Sweet

Ugadi is the New Year's day for the telugu and kannada people of India. This holiday is mostly prevalent in Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, and Maharashtra. Gudi Padwa, which is the Marathi new year, is also celebrated on the same day.

On Ugadi Day, people wake up before the break of dawn and take a head bath after which they decorate the entrance of their houses with fresh mango leaves. Special dishes are prepared for the occasion. There are lot of sweets prepared for this festival like obbattu or puran poli, many types of laddus, payasam etc... I am posting a very easy laddu recipe made with fried gram.

This ladoo is often prepared at home since it is very easy to make and less time consuming also. This ladoo is a favourite among kids also.
